About the Item

A fabulous, Swedish, gourd form, green patinated bronze vase, by GAB Guldsmedsaktiebolaget , from the early to mid twentieth century. This vase has a lobed body and is impressed with the maker's mark to the base. It has a gorgeous green patina with bronze tones and verdigris highlights. Beautifully made of solid bronze, it has a substantial weight for its size, weighing approximately 3.8 lbs. (1.7kg.) The shape is sculptural, classic and modern, exemplifying the best of Scandinavian design. It is a joy to hold and admire. GAB was founded in Stockholm in 1867 and the company had an important role on the Swedish art and crafts and industrial design scenes for more than a century. It was founded by Jakob Ängman, who was a major reformer of Swedish silver smithery and an accomplished craftsman. Angman was GAB's creative director until 1942 . At GAB, he developed a style that combined the characteristics of classicism with modern functionalism. He was succeeded by Sven Arne Gillgren.

Wedgwood Lustre Vase by Daisy Makeig-Jones
Located in Toronto, CA
This is a stunning Wedgwood lustre vase, circa 1914, designed by Daisy Makeig-Jones. The flared form vase has an iridescent overglaze on a pale blue ground, and is decorated with intricately detailed, swirling dragons in gold on all four sides. The inside of the vase has a gilded border featuring Oriental scenes of pagodas and gardens, below which are four mythical birds which seem to float in magical suspension over the pale green glaze of the interior. Daisy Mekeig-Jones apprenticed at Wedgwood in 1909 and only two years later, by 1911, she had started to create her own designs at the factory. In 1913 she started designing the Oriental dragon patterns seen here, and by 1915 she had begun the Fairyland lustre ware for which she would become famous. These designs became incredibly popular and helped boost the company's success after the first world war. This beautiful vase, particularly with its fanciful bird-like creatures floating whimsically on the inside, feels like a true precursor to the Fairyland lustreware...
